sketching in Lewes on a sunny spring day

Lewes castle from Baxters Field

toward the castle from Chapel Hill

A couple of weeks ago we had a brief spell of wonderful weather, and I managed to get out and enjoy the sunshine and spend some time sketching
I am planning to paint Lewes castle from Baxters field for this year's Christmas Card, so now was a good time to go, before all the leaves come out, and imagine the snow!

I am happy with the loose breezy but sunny feel to these sketches, and have framed them up, ready to exhibit in Chalk Gallery later this month.
